This is a demo of the first song written and recorded by John Francis and Chance Jones while forming the band The Scarlets. The track was never released to the public.

Real Emergency

This the earliest known recording of Chance Jones. Made in early 1997. As a 16 year old, one holds onto their influences hard and the Dylan here is , ahem, heavy to say the least. The lyrics were written by Michael Burge and the melody is borrowed heavily from Auld Lang Syne. It is an early peek at a young songwriter trying to find his way around.

This song was originally written in 2003. This recording was from a session Chance Jones did with producer Matthew Morgan in 2010, in Portland, OR. Morgan (Hello Mtn.) plays the drums as well and it features Catherine Odell (Horsefeathers, Hello Mtn.) on Cello. 

This Town (Portland Sessions 2010)

I was trying to figure out recording works. So I just choose my favorite MJ tune to practice with. Man, that was a long atime ago and technology and skills have changed greatly.
